A 3mm molecular line survey of NGC1068

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We study the molecular composition of the interstellar medium (ISM) surrounding an active galactic nucleus (AGN), by making an inventory of molecular species and their abundances, to establish a chemical differentiation between starburst galaxies and AGN.

Description

We used the IRAM-30m telescope to observe the central 1.5-2kpc region of NGC 1068, covering the frequencies between 86.2GHz and 115.6GHz. Using Boltzmann diagrams, we calculated the column densities of the detected molecules.

We used a chemical model to reproduce the abundances found in the AGN, to determine the origin of each detected species, and to test the influence of UV fields, cosmic rays, and shocks on the ISM.
